The lot was awesome and I definitely recommend this place! If ever we get close by we'll...

The dishes we received (duck leg, pasta with chicken & courgette, menu enfant with chicken) were subtly flavoured, creatively garnished, and even the menu enfant came early, whether due to children being less patient or because children are slow eaters and we had mentioned the plane I don't know. Cafe gourmand a delight, including the rich espresso,...
